Many of those who have left the workplace are being forced to return by the cost of living crisis to bolster their finances.
This is ridiculous. The American Dream is dead - destroyed by the billionaire class, who made it across the bridge and then immediately scuttled the bridge behind them.
Not saying you’re wrong, but kind of funny since the article is British.
More like the capitalist dream is dead I guess. Capitalism works ok early on before the capital has all settled into the rich people’s pockets.
I fully anticipate never retiring and dying at my desk at work. Yay capitalism.
It’s true. I see more and more elderly working around me, when they should be living off their pensions.
And this has a yet another bad side effect: my company has not hired new young workers to train because there is no need - all the retirees keep coming back when they are needed. There is a huge issue with finding a job for young people because there is enough old people working still.
These companies are just pushing the problem to 5 years later, when all the elderly physically can’t work anymore.
Agreed.
